Xupai Annual Party: A Farewell to 2017 and a Hello to the Future
The years are a journey with no way back,
so at the end of the year
we need a grand gathering
to give this year a proper send-off,
and an overture to the new year.
The ring of time has left a deep mark on the book of 2017. Bathed in bright winter sunshine, with spring approaching, a hopeful and vibrant 2018 is already on its way to us! At this memorable moment of farewell and welcome, the Xupai Battery family gathered together for its New Year party.
On February 8, at a lovely time when spring returns to the land and all things revive, the Xupai Battery annual party was held with great ceremony at the Xin Zijin Hotel.
You might think
a hotel with big red banners,
schoolkids celebration acts,
tacky staff games,
and a pointless three-hour speech from the boss.
Is that what an annual party is?
NO,NO,NO
Ours is different!
After a passionate opening from the hosts, the chairman of Xupai Group delivered a wonderful address, and in just a few minutes the party was officially under way.
About the shows
Year after year the flowers look the same, but year after year the people are different.
Looking back, we are full of passion;
looking ahead, we are resolute and high-spirited.
The party
Every department showed its own talents, like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea,
and wonderful acts followed one another...
Leaders judged and picked the best acts:
first place won a cash prize of 5,000 yuan.
The creative act Light by the Brand Foreign Trade Department
took first place.
▲ The creative act Light
▲ The sketch Robbery
▲ The song My Good Brother
▲ Dance and instruments: On the Golden Mountain of Beijing
▲ Choir: Tomorrow Will Be Better
▲ The song Wind Blowing Through the Wheat
▲ Folk comic quartet: Praise Our Company
▲ Choir: Wishing You Prosperity
About the lucky draw
Simple, keep the lucky draw simple,
please skip all the fancy tricks;
I am no actor,
do not set up hurdles for me.
The Xupai lucky-draw system rolled names at random until a stop was called;
the lucky ones who appeared on the screen
stepped up to smash golden eggs
and won the prizes.
A Midea rice cooker or a Joyoung soya milk maker?
A smartphone or a portable speaker?
Collectible Jingdezhen ceramics or a premium suitcase?
Or a 5,000-yuan cash prize?
It all comes down to your luck!
About 2018
Through the long, gentle years,
calm waters nurture the hope that will set us sail for distant horizons.
The figures galloping through the industry
are the goal we strive for together.
We walk together through wind and rain,
with the burning passion and bright visions of Xupai people.
We challenge the future
and wave our hands to hope.
Farewell, 2017.
Transformed and ready to go,
in 2018 we meet a better self:
a brand-new start,
pressing forward with resolve!
